Our laws and Constitution protect each of us from having
our Government use our legal system to destroy us when we have not committed a
crime. Unlike banana republics, we do not use our legal system to punish our political
opponents, simply because we disagree with their ideology.

The concern that prompted the appointment of the Special
Counsel—a legal prosecutor—is whether Russia interfered in our election and the
Trump campaign "colluded" with the Russians to do so. After months of
national security investigations, no evidence of Trump campaign
"collusion" with the Russians has ever been found.

Election interference and collusion are national security
matters, not crimes, and no crimes were alleged when the Special Counsel was
appointed, as is required by the law and our Constitution.

So, bottom line, this appointment violates federal laws,
is contrary to our justice system and puts in jeopardy our Fourth Amendment
right not to have our property and records seized in the absence of our having
committed a crime.

If we fail to grasp the significance of what is happening
and do not take action now to bring this travesty to a crashing halt, then we
deserve to become a subjugated people.

We, citizens of America, herewith exercise our right to petitionthe
Government for a redress of grievances guaranteed by the First Amendment to the
United States Constitution, to wit:

Whereas, the Code of Federal Regulations, 28
CFR 600.1 - Grounds for appointing a Special Counsel, states that the Attorney
General, or in cases in which the Attorney General is recused, the Acting
Attorney General, will appoint a Special Counsel when he or she determines that
criminal investigation of a person or matter is warranted. And

Whereas, a Special Counsel was appointed by the Acting Attorney
General without identifying a person who had committed a crime or a criminal
matter that warranted investigation; instead, the appointment was made to
investigate a non-criminal national security matter. And

Whereas, the appointment of a Special Counsel, under the above
circumstances, creates an unconstitutional perversion of our criminal justice
system, in that, any and all Americans who have committed no crime can be
investigated by a Special Counsel and presumed “guilty” until proven “innocent”
and, thereby, rendered vulnerable to search and seizures of our persons,
houses, paper and effects without probable cause—a violation of our rights
granted by the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution. And

Whereas, the Code of Federal Regulations, 28
CFR 45.2, states that a Justice Department employee cannot participate in a
“criminal investigation or prosecution if he has a personal or political
relationship with …Any person or organization substantially involved in the
conduct that is the subject of the investigation or prosecution.” And

Whereas, in violation of 28 CFR 45.2, the Special Counsel appointed
by the Acting Attorney General has both a personal and political relationship
with a key witness, as well as has hired lawyers to assist with the
investigation who have made financial contributions to and performed legal
services for the individual deemed to have been harmed by the non-criminal
national security matter being investigated by the Special Counsel. And

Whereas, in light of the aforementioned, we, American citizens, assert
that the Special Counsel appointment by the Acting Attorney General justifies
this registration of our grievances with our Government, in that this
appointment, in summary:

Establishes the precedent that a Special Counsel can be appointed to
investigate any and all Americans who have committed no crime, and

Renders asunder one of the most sacred principles in the American criminal
justice system that a citizen is innocent until proven guilty, and

Even more egregious, makes all Americans vulnerable to search and seizures of
our persons, houses, paper and effects without probable cause—a violation of
our rights granted by the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution.

Now, therefore, we demand that the United States House of
Representatives Oversight Committee call for the immediate termination of the
Special Counsel whose existence violates Code of Federal Regulations sections
28 CFR 600.1 and 28 CFR 45.2 and puts in jeopardy our Fourth Amendment rights
under the U.S. Constitution.
